Description
The Civil War by Julius Caesar and Jane F. Gardner is a gripping account of one of history's most pivotal conflicts.
Caesar, renowned for his military genius, also recorded the events of his life with remarkable immediacy and power. This work chronicles his struggle with Pompey over the leadership of Republican Rome, a conflict that spanned the entire Roman world.
The narrative continues where Caesar's own account leaves off in 48 BC, with his lieutenants describing the vital battles of Munda, Spain and Thapsus, and the installation of Cleopatra as Queen of Egypt. This collection of narratives provides a full picture of the events that brought Caesar supreme power.
